Whew! Talk about a trashy story!

Granted the cover the newspaper (?) is totally tacky. But after spending time listening to the phone messages-I am sitting here wondering what is really going on?

This is definitely the stuff that B-movies are made of. Too much tacky drama and way too much trauma.

I don't know how attitudes run in the east on this type of behavior by political figures. But in the midwest-he'd be outta of office by now.
